Clapton wrote this song after his 4-year-son tragically died. This song always leaves me with a lump in my throat, but your rendition makes me cry so much, it's that beautiful!
I've browsed a hundred covers of this song today and this one is the best I've heard so far. I can't explain why and this is a fairly good reason to me. You nailed it.
I listened to a few versions of this song. I truly have to say yours is the most pleasant & heartfelt version I've ever heard. You sang this from your heart with such great feeling. It made me cry thinking of my late wife of 8 yrs. Thank you for sharing your beautiful talent & Please be safe and have a great day 😁 Jimmy
This is one of the better covers on youtube. Most people overdo it because they just don't have the magic to keep it simple and sound great. So they dress it up in ornaments. I thought this cover was good, honest and had the right dynamics. Perhaps a little more variation with the dynamics wouldn't hurt but great job. You seem like a nice guy too :)
lamenamethefirst I know I’m replying to an old comment, but I think the only real issue was with the mixing. Not sure why his voice has been produced to such a high level when it stands up well on its own. I’m hoping his more recent videos don’t suffer from the same overproduced sound.
Can i just apologize for assuming that you would be terrible. I was truely amazed, and i was proved wrong. you have such an amazing voice and skills playing the guitar. never stop doing what you are doing.
Would you know my name If I saw you in heaven? Would it be the same If I saw you in heaven? I must be strong And carry on, 'Cause I know I don't belong Here in heaven. Would you hold my hand If I saw you in heaven? Would you help me stand If I saw you in heaven? I'll find my way Through night and day, 'Cause I know I just can't stay Here in heaven. Time can bring you down, Time can bend your knees. Time can break your heart, Have you begging please, begging please. Beyond the door, There's peace I'm sure, And I know there'll be no more Tears in heaven. Would you know my name If I saw you in heaven? Would it be the same If I saw you in heaven? I must be strong And carry on, 'Cause I know I don't belong Here in heaven.
actually this is one of the rare covers of the song which reflects the song best... no drama, no xtra just a voice and a guitar... different tempo but i understand cause those who attempted the exact tempo f****d the vocal... so good job keep it up!
IN FACT! fat peaple have an higher chance to have a good and deep voice wille skinny peaple have an harder time they have to practice a lot more too get something not as good
dude im speachless on how well played and sung this is i saw 3 vids of yours now and holy motherfkucking shit its amazing i used to sleep to this song as a baby and still love this song today it brought tears to my eyes listening to this my dad died 3 years ago and i played this at his funeral and it remonds me of him im glad someone like you can sing it with emotion and just WOW it just amazing
My father told me that I should never play this song in front of my mother, she lost a child after birth, years before I was born. He said it depressed her to the point of tears the one time he did play it around her.
dam man. obviously a terrabile thing to happen but i guess clapton did also and wrote this beautiful song about it. sometimes sadness helps i guess. can't just ignore something that happened. Well you can but it needs to be delt with in my opnion. don't mean to cause controversy. peace n love all
Was looking for a nice cover of Eric Clapton's. Saw this video and was afraid if it's one of those video with huge view number of people making fun of it. Good thing it's not! Though for the tempo you used for the cover, the singing needs more desperation and sadness. The original song with faster tempo has more sadness than the cover, dude. Just throwing my 2 cents... Good luck!
yeah it's a good point you make. Unfortunately, (or should I say, fortunately) I don't think this guy's son just died, so it's pretty hard to re-create it. The emotion used in this song is such unimaginable sadness that I hope I never will go through. He did an excellent job in this video I think.
Again a stunning version.. This guys is a amazing musician and all the comments are very ignorant with regards to his size fantastic song fantastically sung it's been a pleasure flicking through your music....
I just wanted to tell you thanks. I've heard this song so many times after we lost our son and it sent chills down my spine. I am finally trying to learn this and I am going off yours if you don't mind.
@@dougrasmussen5444 it appears you do not have a sense of humor; my profile pic is supposed to be funny. Also, saying "why assume hes been bullied lol" isnt really intelligent commentary. and you still didnt answer my question either. anyone driving the question asked to a different topic can hardly be given credence as capable of intelligence in general.
The video where Clapton plays this for the first time just showed up in my recommendations and then I saw this. It’s been a couple years since I’ve listened to your cover. Your music got me through some dark times from 2017-19. I was so depressed back then. I can’t believe how bad it was looking back. But now I’m happy 😊 so thank you, Austin. Your originals are so good BTW. Seeing you play live would be amazing!
I searched for covers of this song and this video was last and most of the covers was good but I wasn't really satisfied, then I clicked on this and I said to myself: "please be good please be good". I can honestly say I wasn't disappointed!! I hope you're going to become famous!! You have a wonderful gift!!
this is the song that was on my father's funeral. and you sing it so I wunderfull love your voice just so unbelievable. I hear the song so many times in the original, but with your I cried!
Quelle voix magnifique ! Cette interprétation me touche beaucoup, je l'écoute en boucle depuis que ma fille Jade s'est envolée vers le royaume des anges. Merci de partager avec nous ton talent.
This is my favorite Eric Clapton song. He sings it so beautifully. But you, you brought tears to my eyes. I loved your cover. Please don't stop. Sheilah (~:
Oh my god, it's wonderful! Thanks for the emotions. I just close my eyes to listen you and enjoy. Thanks so much for these wonderful moments. I eared you on tv, here in France and i hope ear you again.
Thank you so much for not doing any crazy melody changes like most cover artists do. The song has a brilliant melody and I'm grateful that you held true to it.
I choose your version of this song for the funeral of my cousin and best friend. And it was perfect. Thank you, from deep heart.
From France.
Mad respect❤️❤️
Deepest condolences. It's a beautiful song.
Im sorry to hear about your cousin passing that must be hard. I just lost my grandma in December on the 10 on the day after my b day
😭😭😭💔💔❤️🩹
How in the name of all things that are holy is this dude not famous yet?
Terr Rawling thats the same shit i said i honestly am surprised he aint famous yet this dude has something beyong talent
Edward Ramirez I bet if he went on one of those TV shows, the whole world would know his name.
+Terr Rawling He needs hits like "Look at the flick of the wrist" and "Whip/Nae Nae"
Terr Rawling who knows
Terr Rawling- good fucking question. This guy has mad talent!

have a look at this one i have created last week ua-cam.com/video/BXPC6WlB7Bc/v-deo.html
This is the best cover you will EVER HEAR!!! Miss this guy so much hope he’s doing alright
This song means so much after my niece passed away in the womb. I almost cried. Thank you.
I listened to a few versions of this song. I truly have to say yours is the most pleasant & heartfelt version I've ever heard. You sang this from your heart with such great feeling.

Austin, you give me the chills every time I hear this. I haven't heard any other cover artist this good on UA-cam.
Can i just apologize for assuming that you would be terrible. I was truely amazed, and i was proved wrong. you have such an amazing voice and skills playing the guitar. never stop doing what you are doing.
Why did you assume he was terrible?
I was being judgemental and just jumping to conclusions by the looks of him. It was my own stupidity
Jesse Watson thanks man 👍👍👌👌
hey, he's admitted to his mistake, lay off.
As was already pointed out: he realised his mistake, and doesn't need your advice.
I never subscribe to people that do covers of songs on UA-cam, but you, sir, deserve more recognition.
Wow !!!!! God I wish I had a voice like yours. I salute you sir. Thank you
listened to a few of your covers......excellent big fella 😉 keep up the good work 💪👍
Wow....I’ve listened to this song about 10times in a row now. Absolutely BEAUTIFUL. I needed this in my life today. God bless you!!
How are you not the world's greatest musican, you're voice is beautyful and you play the guitar so good
Would you know my name
If I saw you in heaven?
Would it be the same
If I saw you in heaven?
I must be strong
And carry on,
'Cause I know I don't belong
Here in heaven.
Would you hold my hand
If I saw you in heaven?
Would you help me stand
If I saw you in heaven?
I'll find my way
Through night and day,
'Cause I know I just can't stay
Here in heaven.
Time can bring you down,
Time can bend your knees.
Time can break your heart,
Have you begging please, begging please.
Beyond the door,
There's peace I'm sure,
And I know there'll be no more
Tears in heaven.
Would you know my name
If I saw you in heaven?
Would it be the same
If I saw you in heaven?
I must be strong
And carry on,
'Cause I know I don't belong
Here in heaven.
+Tom Musics Don't post lyrics just for likes.
Ollie Sims if you want , but i did it for me and for the person who want to sing along
Tom Musics thanks

wow. your voice blew me away. keep it up
I saw this video 5 years ago, and learned this song by watching this over and over. You are my hero!
Man is a legend. Always love his covers. Always love him. My soul. My heart. I can't.
Amazing voice and amazing skills.
Speachless.
you have an amazing voice , you realy should be more popular
THIS angelic voice of yours!! god!
actually this is one of the rare covers of the song which reflects the song best... no drama, no xtra just a voice and a guitar... different tempo but i understand cause those who attempted the exact tempo f****d the vocal... so good job keep it up!
I don't care whether this is 7 years old already, this is a beautiful cover
Wow!!! What a voice!!! You're fantastic pal!!!
angel's voice. oh my god
I think you are a great singer your voice is great
You are absolutely the most talented singer I have heard in a long time. You brought tears to my eyes. So beautiful, man...
I’m still listening this song, I love your voice so much
A big fan of you from HK❤
He has so much talent it cant fit in one screen.
Wow don't judge a book by it's cover this guy....you sir are amazing keep it up!
Tpobeatheater1871 the fact that he's big wouldn't mean he would be a bad singer....what a weird judgement....
Which you have just done by beginning your statement that way
miamar He never said that, never said a single thing about his size.
It's not over until the fat lady sings?
IN FACT!
fat peaple have an higher chance to have a good and deep voice
wille skinny peaple have an harder time they have to practice a lot more too get something not as good
this made me smile so much
Simply beautiful. I have been listening to your covers for 2+ hours now and have listened to this song about 6 times in a row. You are amazing.
I love this cover so much since it reminded me of what this song is about and brought it back to its true essence
your voice is amazing... i'd like to sing like you...
I just found you and felt in love
You're amazing brother❤️❤️
dude your voice is great. a lot better than some worlwide known "stars". but we all know how this works. greetings from greece
I have listened to this 6 times in the last 40 mintues, just over and over again! I love it
dude im speachless on how well played and sung this is i saw 3 vids of yours now and holy motherfkucking shit its amazing i used to sleep to this song as a baby and still love this song today it brought tears to my eyes listening to this my dad died 3 years ago and i played this at his funeral and it remonds me of him im glad someone like you can sing it with emotion and just WOW it just amazing

I know what you're saying but it's hard to re-create the emotion that Clapton gives it because it's about his son
yeah it's a good point you make. Unfortunately, (or should I say, fortunately) I don't think this guy's son just died, so it's pretty hard to re-create it. The emotion used in this song is such unimaginable sadness that I hope I never will go through. He did an excellent job in this video I think.
Conor Hill *daughter. im pretty sure it was his daughter.
but yeah she fell from a hotel window to her death. sad stuff :p
Robert Noche Nah it was his son but yeah sad stuff
Conor Hill Ahh yup you're right. It gives the song so much more power knowing the backstory though. Now when I play that song its hard not to cry.
Some say he has the voice of a generation.... in all honesty, 10/10 awsome!!!!!
Again a stunning version.. This guys is a amazing musician and all the comments are very ignorant with regards to his size fantastic song fantastically sung it's been a pleasure flicking through your music....
You voice is a fucking miracle. Amazing.
i'm surprised, you're really good o.o
Why are you surprised
Paul Walker ♥
your voice is one in a million man you have a very clear resonance and tone
I cant stop coming back and listen to u sing tear in heaven
I just wanted to tell you thanks. I've heard this song so many times after we lost our son and it sent chills down my spine. I am finally trying to learn this and I am going off yours if you don't mind.
I wonder how many bullies have attacked this man without realizing that he is on a completely different plane of existence than they are?
No kidding!
why assume hes been bullied lol

@@BrendoniPepperoni - The glasses might be funny in someone with a respect for others. For you, it is just a sad commentary of base low intelligence.
Why do we need to include his appearance? Can't we just appreciate his voice and ignore everything ells?
you have an amazing voice dont u ever give up you will go very far in life with your singing cant wait to see more covers you do
buddy, OMG.....your voice brought tears to my eyes. Thank you so much for doing this song. Simply amazing.
Amazing :) Paul Walker
this song has nothing to do with paul walker you fucking idiot?
Zac McKauge Lmfaoo tru

When i saw a fat guy i thought: DAAAAAM, he probably sings well. I was wrong.
He sing VERY DAMM WELL
Great voice Peter Griffin!
You didn't have to add that second rude comment...

Thankyou for this truly beautiful cover
I've been listening to Eric Clapton covers for like an hour now and I can say that this is one, if not the best cover I've heard :)
Great job man. This song always makes me think of my mom. I can't listen without crying.
Bravo to you sir! I love this song because it has a very personal spot in my heart. Thank you so much.
